Chip's Instant Access Saver @ 4.70% for new users (3.75% underlying rate + 0.95% 6-month bonus rate).
I no longer check the forums as regularly as I used to. If you wish to catch my attention please remember to tag me (@ircE) so I get a notification.3 -
Ford Easy Access Saver (currently 4.5% AER) has been withdrawn from sale for new customers. As an existing customer with a maturing Fixed Rate Account they're offering me a new Easy Access Saver at 4.35% AER. Suspect they'll be dropping their rates soon......2

I didn't spend much time on it, but it doesn't seem any advantage over the still available 4.85% AER Easy Access Saver Account | Chip?
Is the latter becoming NLA to new customers?0 -
Maybe unlimited withdrawals instead of being tied to just 3 in 12 months without penalty?soulsaver said:ircE said:Chip's Instant Access Saver @ 4.70% for new users (3.75% underlying rate + 0.95% 6-month bonus rate).

I wonder if a mass exodus will lead to Chase at least bumping it back up a little. Wishful thinking!refluxer said:
Yes, the 1% boost on the Boosted Chase Saver account that was launched around June last year (IIRC) ends today.liger said:Is today the last day for the boosted chase interest rate? so move the savings tomorrow when the rate goes down?0 -
The rate of their Saver account tracks the base rate these days and the difference is actually due to increase next month (to -1.50%) which means that the underlying rate will drop even further, plus there's a BoE meeting next month that could lead to an even bigger drop.[Deleted User] said:I wonder if a mass exodus will lead to Chase at least bumping it back up a little.

If they do find the need to attract funds then they'll probably just launch a new Boosted Saver, but hopefully they won't limit it to new customers only next time.3 -
Gatehouse Easy Access
According to their website, their Easy Access savings account is unavailable with a message saying "currently under review".3 -
